INFEED AIR CONVEYOR

The empty bottles are loaded manually onto the in feed air conveyor where air at high pressure from a blower is used for conveying bottles supported at the neck upto the infeed bottle transfer rotor. The air conveyor permits different bottle sizes to run without making any adjustments. Hence there is no wastage of time in conveyor adjustment on the in feed side.

INFEED BOTTLE TRANSFER ROTOR

The bottles are transferred to rinse rotor by the in feed bottle transfer rotor. Bottles are held at the neck during transfer.

The automatic rinse rotor has spring loaded grippers mounted radially which pick up bottles one by one from the infeed transfer rotor. The bottle is inverted against a lever on the rinse valve to start the rinsing operation. Thus we have NO BOTTLE – NO RINSE. Bottles are washed for upto three seconds each, before draining (for removal of residual water) and up righting for transfer to the filling rotor. The rinsing medium is generally product water.

FILLING ROTOR

The internationally accepted and approved VENT PIPE filling principle ensures accurate level filling without spillage. The filling accuracy is +- 5ml. The fill tank level is regulated automatically by a PLC controlled electronic probe which reduces the machine speed in the vent of disrupted input product water supply. The machine speed is them restored to normal once the water supply is replenished.
